Enjoyed the demo after not having played 08 at all. MUCH better than 07, especially the running game. I couldn't score against the Pats defense (got to the 3 when time expired, got picked in the endzone) but finally hit Plaxico on a drag and he rounded the corner and went 40-something yards for the score. One of those where he starts motion before the snap -- he just burned across the field and the DB had no chance... seems like YAC will be much better than in the past.
Might pick this up on release. If I can get if from Gamefly somehow, I'll try to do that because it's always cheaper to buy that way.. heh..

i love the fact you can now stiff arm a db as soon as you catch the ball to avoid the quick tackle. YAC is gonna be beautiful thing this year.
More odd stuff
threw a 30 yard TD yet no score, how ever the ball was placed on the GL. I threw another TD yet no score again, however they then had me kickoff to the Pats with 10 sec left. After I made the tackle then the game ended with a Failed.
Ive yet to see the drop ball issue

btw, i also got all-madden for rushing and i failed three times in a row to pick up the first down on the opening play. (not a bad thing, btw)
lol well i come realize what everyone is talking about with drops. Kevin Boss and Brandon Jacobs have hands of stone.

I really liked the demo.. Might be my first next gen purchase of Madden. & the IQ test is excellent. I usually found the game too easy or too hard.. Now the AI adapts to how good you are.. The blocking is incredible.. & the automatic hurdling tripped me out a bit.. Wasn't expecting that.. The RB has so many moves now..

Overall I think this is a HUGE improvement in Madden and I am glad I haven't seen the fumbling problems of last year . . . so far.

Ok... Question on the Madden IQ... does it change while playing Madden Moments? Mine seems to be stuck on 498 (whatever that means). The passing started out extremely hard considering how well I did in the Madden Test (which is a horrible representation of the playing field imo). After a few picks thrown in a row, the passing seemed to have eased up, so I'm not sure if the Madden IQ is altering or not, but I sure hope so.
Will this work on the regular build too? Like say, I decide to not take the madden test (which I have already decided lol), and I play like 5 exhibitions... the game should accurately reflect my playing skill right?
I personally like this addition to the game the most if all of what I hope is true.

60 frames looks so well as far as movement and speed is concerned.. Also this game is 10 times better than 08 on PS3 with the frame rate alone .. last year just sucked.. Wish I could of played more but honestly it feels like a better polished version of NCAA plus the men are a bit more detailed and larger... Passes Zip in faster when standing still and holding the button .. Running feels more smooth and the shaking camera is a nice touch in the open filed.. also Free lance celebrations(LIKE NCAA) is cool i dunk the ball 2wice and missed 1 time because I wasn't in the middle of the goal post .. kinda cool! I pause the game and looked on teh side line and spotted 4 different coaches ..looked cool but the faces was waaay off and they looked like migets LOL
will there be real coach faces and coach cut scenes this year?? if not I think next year 2010 madden will fully work on presentation like NFL2k5.. atleast teh chain gain and multi pro bowl helmets with sometype of celebration.. imagine winning a real cadillac on the game for MVP how sweet
I am not gonna make a whole lot of comments on this yet as its a demo, but I will say I LOVE the fact that the QBs have to turn and set their feet before throwing the ball. I also like that the balls are not as accurate when throwing on the run.
are we throwing the passes to hard? could this be reason for the drops cause its getting a tad frustrating when you your hitting plaxico in the #s wide open and he just drops it.
by the way bobbling catches are pretty nice touch.

Liked:
The new quick subs
The run game
Play Calling screen
Player Models
Complaints:
The entire IQ thing is entirely pointless.
The drills in no way judge anything that relates to real gameplay.
(BTW im not slandering it, just stating a fact, those drills do not apply to any gameplay, which makes me even madder that this is their big feature. As I have said before rather then take on serious issues like improving Franchise or Online, they chose to add a pointless gimmick that no one was asking for.)
